Here's the first image from our trip to Crater Lake this year. This trip was pretty close to the same time of year, but Shaun and I brought all 6 of our collective children with us. It was a very different trip to say the least.

I snuck away at the end of a full day spent visiting most every stop on the drive around the rim of the crater to make this merger of 11 images and the resulting 71 megapixel pano. It was pretty quiet, as all the kids were wiped and were happy to stay in the car.

If you click on the image you can see it full screen on a black background.
